Yes, I know context is not latex3, but I realy think it could be !
Thats why I'm going to switch from latex to context.

Yes, that is what is was first tried.

- 01-problematique.pst.pdf :
  the figure that now works because I'v haded a first white psframe
  (in the pstricks code)

- 09-coutReduits.pst.pdf :
  A figure that becomme black in context but a small party which
  had a white psframe in it.
  Thank to it I found the previous solution

  The tex/pstricks source for these two figure a provide too.

- ucp_latex_seminar.pdf :
  The final document produiced whith latex + seminar + pstricks
  that I want to reproduice with context + pstrick
  then, later, with either metapost or pdftricks.
  
- ucp_context_test.pdf :
  the first try whith context and all the black figures 

So, I feel the pdf figures are "transparents", but I don't know how
to paint the context background in "white" instead od "black".
But nox, I can add a big white rectangle as the first line of all 
pstricks "pspicture".

yes that is how I do (sometimes I also add "pagma")
